Hey everyone,
The EA app does now allow download speed to be limited, just in case that update was missed.
You can find and change this option under Settings > Download > Limit download rate.
Thank you for the patience with this and for all the feedback!
Needs a download limit feature. Origin has it, epic games has it, ubisoft connect has it, blizzard has it, steam has it. The list goes on.
EA SPORTS FC™ Team@TheSeries3 Thank you for the feedback.
I recently collected all the suggestions and feedback regarding the features and passed on all feedback and suggestions regarding features to the right teams.
Keep in mind that the EA app is still in development and more features will be implemented over time. During this time we are collecting all your feedback and I'll make sure that it makes it to the right people.
EA SPORTS FC™ TeamThat's exactly the feedback that I passed on, the impact of not being able to throttle the download to the other people on the same home network and that some player revert back to Origin because they want to use certain features that aren't available yet on the EA app.
Developing these features take time, but as long as you guys are providing the feedback I can let the team know what you want and how it impacts you.
Oh wow, I just got the EA Desktop app set up and was shocked to find there wasn't a throttle! I see I wasn't the only one. I'm glad you've passed the feedback about throttling download speeds along. It's always the most frustrating oversight to me when I have to use a new launcher. Looking forward to being able to download games at a time I want to, rather than at a time I need to.
Your excuse of it still being in development is equivalent to having Lamborghini giving out their first manufactured commercial car without brakes after having tested, experienced and improved the concept of vehicle transportation nearly every day for the last 25 years.
I know you work for EA but maybe you can see how utterly foolish it is?
I understand it's alot to expect but after years of endless cash-grabs, false promises, dissapointing revelations and crushed expectations from the company you answer for it's quite reasonable to wonder how the most basic feature wasn't in there in the first place, let alone after what was it now, 1 year?
*sigh*
(note that I am in no way mad with you, heck, I'm not even mad at all tbh. We're used to it by now, it's just an outmost dissapointment all though not a suprisingly one)
Wish you the best.
Sincerely
EA.. realy????
Until now there is no speedlimiter for downloads implemented 🤣😁🤣😁🤣😁
thats why this publisher got the worst reputation for.... nearby everything...
you can only feel sorry for the programmers themselves!
if you have such project managers, salespeople and
ceo's as supervisors... you definitely don't need any more enemies 😒😏
game shop/library/downloader without the functionality to control the download speed...
Battlefield 2042 (back to the roots eh?) without a scoreboard and chat xD
some AAA Slotmachine-Games with skins/design's of the most famouse Sporttypes 😛
so please.... 😢 .... increases the team of programmers...
because if gamers, wich already spend so much money for not realy useful things like "weaponskins"
or something like that, will pay even more money for this things if the game awsome to play
without all this sad+rage+frustrating moments every EA published game regularly brings with it...
💔🤐
puuuhhh..... 120gb DL finished 😞
i hope BF2042 is fixed so far that I do not lose the connection to the server or the map
absorbs my soldier every 5-10 minutes, like two weeks ago... 😬

"Keep in mind that the EA app is still in development and more features will be implemented over time"
Has been ONE YEAR, 12 MONTHS and this feature still is not on EA Play. WHY?
One would expect that because it STILL is in development, it would be faster to deliver BASIC features vs a fully released software that requires committee approval and all that BS EA loves to * their features with.
That's the point of giving users early access to the software, to see what works and what not, to quickly evaluate the ideas and problems, implement ones, remove others. But this is not a "still in development" software.
Is an already released software with SLOW development cycle, we are not getting a beta or an early release, we are getting the full thing, and IT SUCKS. Every other game launcher did not take 1 year to implement a bandwidth limiter but of course EA does, and apparently more than 1 year since it has already been 1 year and the feature still is not there.
EA has to hire the most incompetent people for something as basic as this still is missing, and not because they forget, they have been reminded about the lack of such necesary feature by the users, THEY KNOW users not only want it, THEY NEED IT.
